When Henry Rollins was young he was cool
He was in movies I was in school
He was in some music videos
But now Henry Rollins is getting pretty old

Henry Rollins is old
Henry Rollins is old
Henry Rollins is fifty years old
He doesn't sing in a band anymore
He just goes around doing spoken word
Henry Rollins is old

Henry Rollins is fifty years old
He doesn't sing in a band anymore
He just goes around doing spoken word
Henry Rollins is old

Track Name: Coasting Uphill

See your face
All over the place
You're acting like
It's not my problem
Take a breath
It's a disgrace
I tell you what
They tell you nothing

Fuck you Hey fuck you
Fuck you Hey fuck you
Fuck me You don't even know
Shit yeah

We think this life is going out of fashion
You think you've got a better system

Tell us some news that won't make us vomit
Stories of hope that we can believe
Tell us something that won't make us sick
We've been waiting for so long
The bringing of gifts
Will never compare
To honest thought
To broken hearts
Trite giving of gifts
Is not going to add up

Don't we deserve a life we'll be proud of
Give us some god damned hope for a change
The bringing of gifts
Could never compare
To honest thought
To open hearts
Trite giving of gifts
Will never add up

Track Name: Zack Morris' Phone Number

Attempting
Searching
Inquiring
And waiting
Dialing
Incessant ringing

Does anybody have a quarter
Does anyone have a dime
While you were looking for the answer
We kept on wandering through life

Avoiding Belding
Conspiring
Testing
Failing
The high school scam

Anytime you wanted to
Well you could call me
Five five five plus four more fives
That's right where I'll be
And if you wanted to
Then you can call me
Five five five with anything
Is right where I'll stay
Trying to find the right
Time to recognize
Looking for the light
Of understanding

Does anyone have a quarter
Does anybody have a dime
While we were facing dehydration
You turned your water into whine

Anytime that you want to
Then you can call me
Five five five plus four more fives
Is right where I'll be
And if your wanting to
You still could call me
Five five five and anything
That's right where I'll stay

Track Name: Pool Party

I don't know why you even bother
You could have learned a lot from a father
You don't know what you've been thinking
You've got a whole lot of explaining

As I run away
I always run away

I don't know what you've been reading
You should have done a bit less drinking
You don't know how you got started
Maybe someday you won't feel rotten

While I run away
I always run away
And I'm not gonna stay
I'll never god damn stay
I run away
I always run away

Can't you fucking see
We
Need
Speaking
Thinking
What you want to be is who you are going to be

Fuck you

I don't know how you continue
You should not have posed a problem
You can't see how you're behaving
You've still got a lot of explaining

But you run away
You've got a lot to say
No you're not gonna stay
You always run away

If it hurts when it falls apart
Then grows colder in the dark
I'll keep quiet while you talk
Getting colder and colder

Yeah it hurts as it falls apart
Growing colder in the dark
You'll be quiet when I talk
Getting colder and colder

Track Name: The Big Dirty

Never gonna get what you're deserving
Here here here here
Never gonna get what you're deserving

This is our revolution
The city's smoldering like a spark
Looking for restitutions
Never gonna find the right solution

This is mass evolution
The city's drowning in the dark
Searching for what you're given
Never gonna make the right decisions

Here
In here
Right here
Right here
In here
Right here
In here
In here

Never gonna get what you're deserving
Here here here here
Never gonna get what you deserve

This is mass evolution
The city's drowning in the dark
Searching for what you're given
Never gonna make the right decisions

This is our revolution
The city's smoldering like a spark
Looking for restitutions
Never gonna find the right solution

Want it
Trying
Love it
Dying

Oh yeah and you want it
You know that you're trying
How you love it
When you're dying
Yeah you want it
You think that you're trying
And you love it
While you're crying

This is your revolution

Track Name: Memphis Belle

Bet you want to be at the beautiful day at the beach
It's such a lovely day
And you'll wish you were with me

And I bet I'll never be the same
After today
It's such a lovely day today

Bet you want to be at the beautiful day at the beach
It's such a lovely day
And you'll wish you were with me

I bet you'll never be the same
When you were taking trust in vain
You couldn't kiss me in the rain
I must complain
While you are broken on display
In the window soon in the grave

Looking out the dirty old window
You can see the tractor trailing out of here
Watch the machine gears grinding
But you don't think they're coming for me
Looks like the rivers drowning

Bet you want to be at the beautiful day at the beach
I bet you'd love to be at the beach with me

You see the river rising
Or you don't

Bet you want to be at the beautiful day at the beach
It's such a lovely day at the beach today

Track Name: C Minus

Why can't you see
Inside of me
What future brings
What will be

You better believe it
Lost sight of my feelings
They've been gone a lot more lately
You'll never realize it honey

I bring them with me
They're in my pocket
We keep me lonely

You'll never believe it
I've lost touch with forgiveness
It'll be gone unfortunately
But you'll never conceive it

Track Name: Ghosts Of Our Martyrs

Alright it's time
Now grab a book and step in line
You're gonna be the biggest thing
That this network's ever seen
You're all the same
You want your face on the front page
And I don't want to god damn see it

Whoa oh
Oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh

The choice has been made
Now drown your soul in pills and shame
You're gonna be the biggest thing
That this world has ever seen
You're all the same
You want your face on the front page
And I can't fucking god damn stand it

And you want an explanation
You think it's something you should be given
You want an explanation
You're all the same
You're gone
